Parish Groups

Cursillo is a Spanish word meaning a short course. It is not a theoretical course, nor is it a retreat. It is first and foremost, an experience. It must be lived. It is a life-changing experience, which brings with it the discovery of the basis of Christianity and its fundamental significance to our lives.

The experience begins with a three-day weekend. In an atmosphere of friendship and joy, we learn:

To discover ourselves and our own worth on a more fundamental level.

To experience the presence and love of God.

To become aware of what a loving and caring Christian community can bring to the world.
